A-Rod and steroids

I am taking a liberty to go off topic. I must say as a yankee homer I was a bit crushed with A-Rod and steroids. Is anyone clean?

Forever tarnished, and a liar. Great. The thing is, he didn't need them.

As far as some other things. If I am A-Rod I start suing everyone. This was supposed to be anonymous. Why was it able to be tied to him? That to me is wrong, but doesn't make me feel any better.

Another thing, why is everything about the Yankees? Did no other team in baseball have a player do steroids? I know Yankees rule baseball, but there are plenty of other players who tested positive. Their names should come out too.

John, oh come on! you couldn't be totally suprised anyone in MLB used steroids, especially Arod!! what cave have you been living in???

It wouldn't have been so bad if A-Rod hadn't done the 60 Minutes interview.

"Have you ever been tempting to try steroids or human growth hormone?"
(awkward pause, A-Rod looks up)
"No."

And BOOM....goodbye credibility.

Who is A-Rod going to sue? Unless the feds leaked it, it's not a crime, so the source will remain nameless. Unless he wants to sue his own union for not destroying the results ASAP after they weren't needed anymore.

Or he could sue himself for taking an illegal substance.

If the other 103 names aren't released I have a serious problem with this.

Yeah I know, I am a homer here. But, seriously, can the other 103 names be released?

I must say, not surprised, but I am crushed. I like A-Rod. And, I am sick of this story. But, it's true, so there is no sense in trying to defend him.

The other 103 should come out.

This will not end well.

Why is it only New York players getting raked over the coals?
